Had you seen this accident involving Michele Alboreto at Tamburello in 1991?
The dynamics are somewhat similar to those of Ayrton Senna’s crash.

The Damned – “Smash It Up” / “I Just Can’t Be Happy Today”
Old Grey Whistle Test, 1979. The band spent the afternoon drinking with Annie Nightingale. By the end Rat Scabies loses it, demolishes his drums and wrecks the stage.

The unwritten rule of cricket: NEVER bowl a bouncer to a fast bowler who can bowl 95mph back at you. 😭
After being struck flush on the helmet by a Fanie de Villiers bouncer, the South African slip cordon laughed.
Big Devon looked at them, made a promise, and turned the second innings into an absolute warzone. Allan Donald later called it "the most destructive piece of fast bowling I have ever seen."🤯
Devon Malcolm turned a bruised helmet into a career-defining 9 for 57 demolition. 🔥

Moments from tragedy.
Today we remember rising star Roger Williamson who was killed at the Dutch GP #OTD 1973. Of course a special mention for David Purley who heroically tried to save him.

This month in 1967, The Monkees released “Pleasant Valley Sunday.”
Written by the extraordinary Gerry Goffin and Carole King, the song reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 11 in the U.K. And somehow, it still feels just as much fun to sing all these years later.
Do you remember where you first heard “Pleasant Valley Sunday?" Tell me your story in the comments.
